Well, this is one of the rare weeks where I am not playing anything on Nintendo consoles (well, just Switch, in my case).

Finished Remnant: From the Ashes. Really liked the game, and they say Remnant 2 is even better. So, adding that to my wishlist.

After finishing Remnant, I was feeling like playing some action oriented game, so instead of going back to my paused games, started going through my backlog to see what clicks and ended up starting Ghost of Tsushima. It’s a really good game. Visuals are fantastic, game looks absolutely stunning. Combat is fluid. And on PS5, there are no loading screens. Not when starting the game, or when fast traveling. Feels nice.

What about all of you? What have you guys been playing? And what are you planning to start next?

    Interestingly enough, even on PS4 GoT had near instantaneous loading times. In an interview it was due to their focus on visual style. Most biomes are composed of singular plant types to get the vibrant uni-color look they were going for. The result was incredible loading times. I played the first half an PS4 then waited for the PS5 upgrade 60fps patch before I finished. So goooood!

      Ahan, that’s interesting. It’s nice when devs think of these things. I wonder what they will make next.

          GoT 2 is fine, though I hope they would go for a new IP after that, instead of going straight to GoT 3. Personally would prefer that they do another IP before coming to GoT 2. If not a new IP, inFamous or even Sly Cooper would be cool.

            I think a lot of PS Studios have been branching into 2 pronged studios. So they might have a team for GoT2 and then another for something new.

              Na, if they do that, it will be for live-service games. I don’t believe Sony (under Jim Ryan) will increase their single-player games output. They will keep the pace of SP same as now, but their focus now is on live-service.
